Building on ideas of Vatsal, Cornut proved a conjecture of Mazur asserting the generic nonvanishing of Heegner points on an elliptic curve E as one ascends the anticyclotomic Z_p-extension of a quadratic imaginary extension K/Q. In the…
In the study of Dirichlet series with arithmetic significance there has appeared (through the study of known examples) certain expectations, namely (i) if a functional equation and Euler product exists, then it is likely that a type of…
Let $E$ be an elliptic curve having CM by the ring of integers of an imaginary quadratic field $K$ in which $p$ splits. Following Lichtenbaum, the Bernoulli--Hurwitz numbers of $E$ (i.e., values of Eisenstein series evaluated at $E$ up to…
Division polynomials associated to an elliptic curve $E/K$ are polynomials $\phi_n, \psi_n^2$ that arise from the sequence of points $\{nP\}_{n \in \mathbb{N}}$ on this curve. If one wishes to study $\mathbb{Z}$--linear combination of…
Let $E/\mathbf{Q}$ be a semistable elliptic curve of analytic rank one, and let $p>3$ be a prime for which $E[p]$ is irreducible. In this note, following a slight modification of the methods of Jetchev-Skinner-Wan, we use Iwasawa theory to…
There is a one-sided central limit theorem for the logarithms of $L$-derivatives of a fixed rational non-CM elliptic curve $E$ over imaginary quadratic fields of rank one, analogous to a result of Radziwi\l\l\ and Soundararajan. There are…
We present an integral representation for the tensor product $L$-function of a pair of automorphic cuspidal representations, one of a classical group, the other of a general linear group. Our construction is uniform over all classical…
Let N and p be two prime numbers > 3 such that p divides N-1. We estimate the p-rank of the class group of Q(N^(1/p)) in terms of the discrete logarithm, with values un F_p, of certain units. Using the Gross--Koblitz formula and identities…
The main conjectures of Iwasawa theory provide the only general method known at present for studying the mysterious relationship between purely arithmetic problems and the special values of complex L-functions, typified by the conjecture of…
We use the theory of Kolyvagin systems to prove (most of) a refined class number formula conjectured by Darmon. We show that for every odd prime $p$, each side of Darmon's conjectured formula (indexed by positive integers $n$) is "almost" a…
Given any integer $N>1$ prime to $3$, we denote by $C_N$ the elliptic curve $x^3+y^3=N$. We first study the $3$-adic valuation of the algebraic part of the value of the Hasse-Weil $L$-function $L(C_N,s)$ of $C_N$ over $\mathbb{Q}$ at $s=1$,…
Let $K$ be a field of characteristic different from $2$ and let $E$ be an elliptic curve over $K$, defined either by an equation of the form $y^{2} = f(x)$ with degree $3$ or as the Jacobian of a curve defined by an equation of the form…
We prove the first cases of a conjecture by Darmon--Rotger on the non-vanishing of generalized Kato classes attached to elliptic curves $E$ over $\mathbf{Q}$ of rank $2$. Our method also shows that the non-vanishing of generalized Kato…
In this paper we provide an explicit construction of a $distinctive$ multiple Dirichlet series associated to products of quadratic Dirichlet L-series, which we believe should be tightly connected to a generalized metaplectic Whittaker…
Let $k$ be a finite field and $L$ be the function field of a curve $C/k$ of genus $g\geq 1$. In the first part of this note, we show that the number of separable $S$-integral points on a constant elliptic curve $E/L$ is bounded solely in…
For a wide class of Dirichlet series associated to automorphic forms, we show that those without Euler products must have zeros within the region of absolute convergence. For instance, we prove that if f is a classical holomorphic modular…
We consider the following nonlinear elliptic system of Hamiltonian type with critical exponents: \begin{equation*} \begin{cases} -\Delta u + V(|y'|,y'')\, u = |v|^{p-1}v, & \text{in } \mathbb{R}^N,\newline -\Delta v + V(|y'|,y'')\, v =…
Let $p$ be a prime number, $n$ an integer $\geq 2$, and $L$ a finite extension of $\mathrm{Q}_p$. Let $\rho_L$ be an $n$-dimensional (non-critical but not necessary generic) potentially crystalline $p$-adic Galois representation of the…
Given any cube-free integer $\lambda>0$, we study the $3$-adic valuation of the algebraic part of the central $L$-value of the elliptic curve $$X^3+Y^3=\lambda Z^3.$$ We give a lower bound in terms of the number of distinct prime factors of…
Analytic continuation and functional equation of a Dirichlet series constructed from two (not necessarily cuspidal) holomorphic modular forms is discussed, where either weights of the modular forms or characters are not necessarily equal to…
